본 연구에서는 시각적 요인에 따라 한글 단어 재인에 미치는 공간주의의 영향을 살펴보았다. 시각적 요인에 따라 공간주의의 영향이 다르게 나타나는지 살펴보기 위해 단어의 시각적 복잡성(실험 1)과 단어의 밝기 대비(실험 2)를 조작하였다. 단어의 복잡성에 따라 받침이 있는 조건과 받침이 없는 조건으로 나뉘었고, 단어의 대비에 따라 대비가 높은 조건과 대비가 낮은 조건으로 나뉘었다. 어휘판단과제를 사용하여 공간단서가 표적 위치에 주어지는 경우(타당 시행)와 표적 위치에 주어지지 않는 경우(비타당 시행) 간의 수행 차이를 단서효과로 계산하여 주의의 영향을 살펴보았다. 실험 결과, 단어의 복잡성에 따라서는 단서효과가 유사하게 나타났으므로, 공간주의의 영향은 복잡성에 의해 달라지지 않는 것으로 해석되었다. 단어의 대비에 따라서는 고대비 조건에 비해 저대비 조건에서 단서효과가 크게 나타났다. 대비가 낮을 때 공간주의의 영향이 더 커지는 것은 자극의 신호를 강화시키는 공간주의의 기제로 설명되었다.

This paper studies the effects of spatially varying ground motions on the responses of a bridge frame located on a canyon site. Compared to the spatial ground motions on a uniform flat site, which is the usual assumptions in the analysis of spatial ground motion variation effects on structures, the spatial ground motions at different locations on surface of a canyon site have different intensities owing to local site amplifications, besides the loss of coherency and phase difference. In the proposed approach, the spatial ground motions are modelled in two steps. Firstly, the base rock motions are assumed to have the same intensity and are modelled with a filtered Tajimi-Kanai power spectral density function and an empirical spatial ground motion coherency loss function. Then, power spectral density function of ground motion on surface of the canyon site is derived by considering the site amplification effect based on the one dimensional seismic wave propagation theory. Dynamic, quasi-static and total responses of the model structure to various cases of spatially varying ground motions are estimated. For comparison, responses to uniform ground motion, to spatial ground motions without considering local site effects, to spatial ground motions without considering coherency loss or phase shift are also calculated. Discussions on the ground motion spatial variation and local soil site amplification effects on structural responses are made. In particular, the effects of neglecting the site amplifications in the analysis as adopted in most studies of spatial ground motion effect on structural responses are highlighted.

We have reported a high prevalence of breast cancer in light-polluted areas in Korea. However, it is necessary to analyze the spatial effects of light polluted areas on breast cancer because light pollution levels are correlated with region proximity to central urbanized areas in studied cities. In this study, we applied a spatial regression method (an intrinsic conditional autoregressive [iCAR] model) to analyze the relationship between the incidence of breast cancer and artificial light at night (ALAN) levels in 25 regions including central city, urbanized, and rural areas. By Poisson regression analysis, there was a significant correlation between ALAN, alcohol consumption rates, and the incidence of breast cancer. We also found significant spatial effects between ALAN and the incidence of breast cancer, with an increase in the deviance information criterion (DIC) from 374.3 to 348.6 and an increase in $R^2$ from 0.574 to 0.667. Therefore, spatial analysis (an iCAR model) is more appropriate for assessing ALAN effects on breast cancer. To our knowledge, this study is the first to show spatial effects of light pollution on breast cancer, despite the limitations of an ecological study. We suggest that a decrease in ALAN could reduce breast cancer more than expected because of spatial effects.

Most codes of practice state that for large in-plane structures it is necessary to account for the spatial variability of earthquake ground motion. There are essentially three effects that contribute for this variation: (i) wave passage effect, due to finite propagation velocity; (ii) incoherence effect, due to differences in superposition of waves; and (iii) the local site amplification due to spatial variation in geological conditions. This paper discusses the procedures to be undertaken in the time domain analysis of a cable-stayed bridge under spatial variability of earthquake ground motion. The artificial synthesis of correlated displacements series that simulate the earthquake load is discussed first. Next, it is described the 3D model of the International Guadiana Bridge used for running tests with seismic analysis. A comparison of the effects produced by seismic waves with different apparent propagation velocities and different geological conditions is undertaken. The results in this study show that the differences between the analysis with and without spatial variability of earthquake ground motion can be important for some displacements and internal forces, especially those influenced by symmetric modes.

Air transport is at the core of global economic growth. There is a close relationship between the flow of regional elements and the growth of the regional economy. It is easy to misestimate the impact of airports on the regional economy without considering spatial spillover effects. This study attempted to establish an asymmetric economic geographical weight matrix by applying the Spatial Durbin Model with cargo volume and passenger numbers as indicators. The influence of spillover effects on the regional economy, including direct spillover effects and indirect spillover effects are studied. The results revealed that passenger numbers and cargo volume have significant positive spillover effects on the regional economy. The driving effect of the airport on the regional economy was considered from a wider space scope. This study contributes to the scientific evaluation of the aviation economy.

본 연구는 한국의 대 중국 제조업 직접투자(1996~2012)의 투자결정 요인을 4개 투자지역으로 구분하고 선행연구와 차별적으로 공간패널효과 모형을 이용하여 규명하였다. 연구결과 중국 전체를 대상으로 한 경우 1인당 RGDP가 정(+)의 유의적 변수로 나타났고 공간효과 변수도 매우 민감한 것으로 나타났다. A지역(동북지구 화북지구)은 1인당 RGDP가 정(+)의 유의적 변수, 공간효과 변수는 부(-)의 유의적 변수로 나타나 지역 내 투자는 대체적인 것으로 나타났다. B지역(화동지구 화남지구)에서는 1인당 RGDP가 정(+)의 유의적 변수, 공간오차모형 계수는 정(+)의 유의적 관계로 나타나 지역 내 투자는 보완적인 것으로 추정된다. C지역(중부내륙지구)의 분석결과 1인당 RGDP와 공간효과 변수 등 모든 변수는 비유의적이고 D지역(서북 서남지구)에서는 1인당 RGDP, WAGE(임금), ROAD(교통인프라), 공간효과 변수(${\rho}$, ${\lambda}$) 모두 정(+)의 유의적인 변수로 나타났다. 이는 한국의 대 중국 직접투자가 동부연안 중심에서 서북 서남지구로 전환을 모색하고 있는 것으로 추정되어지며 이 지역으로 진출시 인접 성(省)의 지역 환경적 특성을 충분히 고려할 필요가 있다고 하겠다.

This study was conducted to investigate the gender-related effects of two instructional programs on spatial visualization skills of ninth grade students. Two instructional programs were developed for this study: a web-based virtual reality program and a paper-based program. 194 ninth graders from two middle schools in Seoul participated in this study. Six classes were divided into experimental groups and control groups. The Middle Grades Mathematics Projects (MGMP) Spatial Visualization Test was used to measure spatial visualization skills. The data analysis indicated that both the web-based and paper-based programs were effective to improve spatial visualization skills to treatment groups. Although boys'test mean scores were higher than girls' in the pretest, when deleting the effect of covariance of pretest, there were no statistical significance in the post-test. Girls in the treatment groups favored the paper-based spatial visualization program. These results imply that spatial training may benefit girls' performance more than that of boys and mode of instructional programs can create gender-related differences regarding spatial visualization skills.

This study examined the effects of surround luminance on the shape of the spatial luminance contrast sensitivity function (CSF). The reduction in brightness of uniform neutral patches shown on a computer controlled display screen is also assessed to explain the change of CSF shape. Consequently, a large amount of reduction in contrast sensitivity at middle spatial frequencies can be observed; however, the reduction is relatively small for low spatial frequencies. In general, the effect of surround luminance on the CSF appears similar to that of mean luminance. Reduced CSF responses result in less power of the filtered image; therefore, the stimulus should appear dimmer with a higher surround luminance.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of young children's age and information processing style in understanding spatial coordinates. For sampling the subjects of this study, Korean version K-ABC Intelligence Test(Moon, Soo-Back, 1997)was conducted with 165 children aged 5-6 who were attending I and G kindergarten in D city. From this pool 30 children who possessed sequential processing style and 30 children who possessed simultaneous processing style were sampled. In order to analyze the understanding of spatial coordinates, a test tool was formulated according to methodology of Blades & Spencer(1989) which was modified. Acquired data was subjected to descriptive and comparative statistical analysis. The following conclusions were arrived at: Firstly, there was significant difference between 5-year-olds and 6-year-olds in understanding spatial coordinates. The 6-year-old group got statistically higher grades than the 5-year-old group in locating a point on the coordinate plane and reading the coordinate numbers. Secondly, there was significant difference between children's information processing style in understanding spatial coordinate. Children with high simultaneous-low sequential processing showed higher performance in locating a point on the coordinate plane and reading coordinate numbers than children with high sequential-low simultaneous processing. Thirdly, after verifying statistical significance of interactivity between young children's age and children's processing strength, there was significant interactive effects in both tasks.
